[SADXA] Fwd: [CADXA DX Talk] Mesa Hamfest Tax Situation

I agree with you. This could really impact the success of the hamfest. 
The city would be wise to do as you say and no one would be very unhappy 
about it.

You are right about the golden goose. These tax folks are all the same.

Folks may just wait a month and to to Scottsdale and be just fine.
